The United Arab Emirates will begin offering visa-on-arrival to eligible Filipino citizens starting June 25th. The new policy allows Filipino passport holders with valid visas or residence permits from specific countries to receive their UAE visa immediately upon arrival. Entry fees for the visa will begin at Dh100. This initiative is intended to encourage increased tourism and strengthen business relations between the UAE and the Philippines. Officials cite the significant Filipino population residing in the Emirates as a factor in the decision. The move represents a simplification of the entry process for Filipino travelers. This development underscores the growing bilateral relationship between the two nations.
